In my opinion, Dubai is a very fast developing city which intimidates me in some level but also excites me. It is very unstable in terms of the economy and I would really think 100 times before coming to live there.

guess you live in the labour camps with them!
every community, be it a town, city or nation, has something that bonds everyone together. It could be the flag, food, music........ What is the only thing that all the people in the UAE have in common with each other? Money! It is the only common denominator.
LE, isn't sand the common factor - you've got sand everywhere. Not everyone's got money, poor debt ridden expat or a debt ridden local :)
In context to this post - strongest impression of DXB is immense, supersonic change, mostly, at the surface.
Too hot
Too humid
Too much artificiality
Mad rush
No soul

P.S.: Will this community have access to your completed project?
Thank you all,
This is great! I would hope to have some more comments. The project will be at Art Basel this year from the 5th of June till September. I will keep you posted and upload images when we get them.
Exciting yet illogical and superficial.
Chaos not far below the surface so nobody goes too deep.
Huge gap between hype and reality
Environmentally backward (sorry!)
Thrilling but frightening
Desperately in need of an open debate... or maybe that's just me!!

Hypocrisy. Glamour outside, poverty inside. A bubble waiting to burst.
